Jan Warmus is the director across Europe at EMCD — one of Europe's fastest-growing crypto super apps with over 400,000 verified users. EMCD is positioning itself as a "Web2.5" bridge, offering fiat ramps, staking, and other retail-friendly crypto services in a highly compliant, accessible format.

EMCD is a full-spectrum crypto ecosystem. You'll find their mining pool (one of the top global SHA-256 pools), a multi-currency wallet, a savings-type product called Coinhold, and a peer-to-peer exchange all under one roof. Their wallet claims "no seed phrases, no middlemen," and integrates swaps, mining-earnings transfers, and holdings in one interface.

They make a clear play for convenience and control: plug-in your mining hardware, track accruals, deploy earnings into savings with up to ~14 % annualized yield (depending on term and asset) — all via one account. Additionally, their mining arm emphasizes daily payouts, low withdrawal thresholds, and global server infrastructure across Europe, Asia, and North America.

EMCD has partnered with Stabul Finance. STABUL Finance operates as a specialized decentralized exchange focused exclusively on stablecoins and tokenized real-world assets. The platform uses what it calls a "fourth-generation" automated market maker (AMM) that builds upon previous technologies like Uniswap and Curve. The EMCD-STABUL partnership addresses a significant market gap. While non-USD currencies account for over 40% of global forex trading, less than 1% of on-chain volume involves non-USD stablecoins. This partnership gives EMCD's 400,000 KYC-verified users access to efficient stablecoin and commodity swaps through STABUL's platform.

For EMCD users, this integration means seamless access to international currencies and tokenized assets without leaving their primary platform. Users earning cryptocurrency through mining can convert to stable assets, earn yield through Coinhold, and eventually spend through the upcoming EMCD Card – creating a complete financial ecosystem.

The timing aligns with EMCD's broader expansion plans. The company offers zero percent mining fees through 2025 and is preparing to launch its crypto debit card, which will connect directly to users' USDT balances for spending at any Visa or Mastercard merchant.

Uplink is building a decentralized network that connects people, devices, and businesses through shared internet infrastructure. It allows individuals and organizations to contribute their existing Wi-Fi routers and other connectivity devices to a global network, turning unused bandwidth into an asset. Participants can earn rewards for providing connectivity or verifying that network nodes are operating correctly, creating a distributed and incentivized internet ecosystem rather than relying solely on centralized telecom providers.

The Uplink system operates with several key roles. Consumers use the network to access connectivity, while providers share or deploy routers and other hardware to extend coverage. Verifiers check that network nodes are genuine and functioning as claimed, validators maintain the blockchain that underpins the network's operation, and holders stake the native token to help govern and secure the ecosystem. Together, these roles form a circular economy where connectivity, verification, and governance all reinforce each other.

Uplink's goal is to scale beyond Wi-Fi into other communication technologies such as 5G and LoRaWAN, creating a fully decentralized connectivity layer for the modern internet. The company is hardware-agnostic and aims to integrate with millions of existing access points worldwide. Over time, Uplink plans to expand its network through user adoption, partnerships, and blockchain incentives, establishing an open, verifiable infrastructure where anyone can contribute to and benefit from global connectivity.
